Good Morning

This morning... we've only been up for an hour now, but I'm already exhausted. It all started with my bloody nose (from Luka shoving his finger up my nostril, which he loves to do)... a tortuous diaper change, in that anyone in another room would have thought I was torturing him by how loud and long he screamed and carried on. Next is the grapes. He loves his grapes... but this morning as soon as they touched his tongue he threw them on the floor. Oh, and right now he just emptied a box of Jujyfruits candy on his highchair. I guess that's what he wants for breakfast. Despite some of these mornings, I really don't want to have to leave him and go back to work. What started out as "I'm only taking the first 6 months off" turned into "I'll definitely have a job by the time he turns one" and has now become: neither Eric nor I have jobs... and we love it. But, realistically we both need jobs, and sadly that means my days here with Luka are possibly close to an end. I remember when Cory (my mama friend) went back to work in December, it was kind of sad because our times of taking the little babies on walks in the Bjorns was over... that precious chapter ended. Luka is demanding I get off the computer now. I tried once more to ease him with a grape and he threw it at me. Oh he's so much fun.
